There are numerous secure self-storage facilities in the city of San Francisco. Noisebridge is not one of them.
In the distant past and again in February 2011, there was discussion of re-organizing the member shelves, hack shelves, and also possibly day-use shelves into an organized set of lockers. The result of these discussions has been that we do not have lockers.
If you're interested in understanding the reasons why, you should read these two threads from February.
Overview
The plan, as it was proposed in February:
- Both member shelves and day-use shelves would be consolidated with lockers.
- Some (not all) shelves would be re-purposed for use as additional hack shelves or shelves for larger projects.
- Lockers could optionally be closed, so nobody else can see your stuff (out of sight, out of mind).
- Lockers would use optional bring-your-own-lock security.
- Lockers would also be numbered, un-labeled, and anonymous.
- Hack shelves would remain as separate shelves, publicly accessible to everybody. Keeping hack shelves separate from the lockers will hopefully result in people feeling more confident in using stuff on the hack shelves.
Current shelves
Our current shelves are 13" deep x 12" tall. An entire shelf is 48" wide. An entire set of shelves is about 7'2" tall.
Best option for new shelves

Some People Don't Like The Idea Of Locking Things At Noisebridge
If you think a locker at Noisebridge would be useful, you are invited to attend a meeting of the lockpicking group. They meet infrequently, usually on Sundays, but if you're interested someone would probably be glad to teach you about locks some other time too.
